When the EEA is in effect this means that commercial websites with a turnover of more than 2 million euros per year and more than 10 employees must comply with accessibility requirements. If that's not motivation enough, it helps to know that Google will penalise sites if their accessibility is not in order.
The basic principles
What does it mean to be accessible as a platform? We can write a book about it, but in its core, accessibility revolves around four basic principles:
- Perceivable:
De content (text and images) of the website is available to everyone, both visually and audibly. - Usable:
The user must be able to perform actions on the site or webshop using a mouse, keyboard or voice commands - Understandable:
The content must be understandable to everyone. The use of complex terms and jargon is discouraged. - Robust:
The site must function well in different software and under varying conditions. Think, different browsers or how your site is displayed on large screens.
How can we help?
Do you know the current state of your website's accessibility? And do you know where to start? At fresk.digital, we help you in three concrete steps to gain the right insights.
Scope
We determine the scope of the scan with the internal stakeholders. Do we start with a section of the website to get a first impression? Or do we look more broadly?
Scan
We go through the scoped section and perform a quick but thorough analysis, distinguishing between low-hanging fruit and more complex adjustments.
Report
The result of the scan is a report with concrete recommendations for improvement and insights into the actions needed to achieve an accessible platform.
